"Cities are driving clean energy policy in Utah. The most impactful way to do this is getting the right people into office and drive their cities to a more sustainable future. We all know if cities don't make the switch to renewable energy quickly, their residents are going to pay the price (literally). Darin is a champion of policies that will protect our city for generations to come."
